religion – Bruno Paolo Benedetti

White, yellow, pink, black, blue, green, purple, light blue and lilac tones abstract outset of life like symbolic image in rough texture with rounded concentric shapes and nuances.

How many times in our lives we got chills when viewing a great artwork, when listening to a beautiful piece of music, when getting absorbed by the lines of a poem or by watching a movie?

Art expressions are able to convey emotions and to make us feel emotionally involved, they are able to spread waves of pleasure through our body and to make us feel as part of what we are listening, reading, watching or looking at. The same feelings may generate when, with a free and clear mind, we get absorbed by an amazing sunset or when we look at a tree, at a beautiful flower or at any other element of nature.

PP Art: Photography Painting Art

October 9, 2018February 18, 2019 bruno paolo benedetti

dominant blue object abstraction art: colorful mottled image with irregular shapes and forms

What does PP Art mean? It is a fusion between the art of photography and that of painting.

Barbara Stamegna, painter, and I, in October 2018 decide to develop a new artistic flow by fusing our arts into an innovative artistic production that they name “PP Art”.

Photography Painting Art is the result of a process of manipulation of photos of paintings and digital art photographs. Through the fusion of these two different art products, a brand new artwork is born.

The outcome is an impressive artwork where both the fused visual arts create a new more stunning image where colors and shapes are mixed in an innovative and unique way.

The resulting abstract images are made of fluid floating shapes and straight or bended lines, of circles and concentric shapes, of vivid lights and shadows, of allusions to human faces or figures and they are made of bright an soft tones of colors and shades, giving the watcher many suggestions for her/his imagination and creativity.

The PP Art (Photography Painting Art) fused artworks introduce the observer to an inner celestial world made by sensations, emotions, feelings, by evoking questions and ancestral images with a strong religious inspiration.

origins

The sword in the stone, in the chapel next to the Gothic Abbey of Saint Galgano at Montesiepi. Archaeological digging may soon unveil its origins, Italian research announced. Known as the “sword in the stone,” the Tuscan “Excalibur” is said to have been plunged into a rock in 1180 by Galgano Guidotti, a medieval knight who renounced war and worldly goods to become a hermit. Built in Galgano’s memory, the evocative Gothic abbey at Montesiepi, near the city of Siena, still preserves the sword in a little chapel. Only the hilt and a few centimeters of the blade protrude from the rock in the shape of a Cross. “The sword has been considered a fake for many years, but our metal dating research in 2001 has…

emerging colored pyramid in light, surrealism photography

In the surrealism photography the image can hold a conceptual and symbolic value, in contrast with non objective photograpy, where the image interpretation depends on the watcher imagination. It takes the place or better can be used along the symbols of the world cultures. We have symbols like Swastika, Cross, Moon, Sun, and many others used by official religions and mystic movements, related to a specific meaning. The two swastikas toghether simbolise the equilibrium, the cross the rebirth and the Moon, in the islamic religion, has different meanings depending on its color.
